We worked on the car from 1P-7P.
Tam gave the carpets another wash while I got prepare to remove the accumulator a-gain.
I used this project as an excuse to buy more tools. I struggled to spend the money for these special wrenched but they did end up being really great for working on the accumulator. They were $30something on sale.

The accumulator had a lot of fuel in it this time and made a mess and my whole arm got soaked...fun.

When I did manage to get it out I looked more closely at the nut. It was close to being bottomed out but didn't seem to be.

I removed the nut and barbed fitting.
I inspected the female connections. They looked perfectly fine .

I put the nut on without the barbed fitting. It looks like it did still have more to go.

The new nut was larger in the middle and the barbed fitting was a larger ID also.



So I decided to just use the new nut with the new barbed fitting.
Just for added insurance I put some fuel proof sealant on the face on the barbed fitting.


I tightened the nut as much as I dared to which ended up being around 18 ft-lbs.
